If you just want to add EMS in a lightweight way with the minimum requirements, follow the instructions in phases 2 and 3 of Office 365 dev/test environment.
If you want to test Office 365 and EMS for a simulated enterprise, follow the instructions in DirSync for your Office 365 dev/test environment.
Note
The configuration in this article does not require the simulated enterprise dev/test environment, which includes a simulated intranet connected to the Internet and directory synchronization for a Windows Server AD forest. It is provided here as an option so that you can experiment with Office 365 and EMS in an environment that represents a typical organization.
In this phase, you sign up for the EMS trial subscription and add it to the same organization as your Office 365 trial subscription.
With a browser on either your desktop computer (lightweight) or from CLIENT1 (simulated enterprise), sign in to the Office 365 portal at https://portal.office.com with the credentials of your global administrator account.
Click Admin.
On the Office Admin center tab in your browser, in the left navigation, click Billing > Purchase services.
On the Purchase services page, find the Enterprise Mobility + Security E5 item. Hover your mouse pointer over it and click Start free trial.
On the Confirm your order page, click Try now.
On the Order receipt page, click Continue.
Note
The Enterprise Mobility + Security E5 trial subscription is 90 days. For a permanent dev/test environment, create a new paid subscription with a small number of licenses.
In this phase, you enable the Enterprise Mobility Suite license for all user accounts.
On the Office 365 Admin center tab, in the left navigation, click Users > Active users.
Click your global administrator account, and then click Edit for Product licenses.
On the Product licenses pane, turn the product license for Enterprise Mobility + Security E5 to On, click Save, and then click Close twice.
For all of your other accounts (User1 [if present], User 2, User 3, User 4, and User 5), do steps 2 and 3.
Your Office 365 and EMS dev/test environment now has:
Office 365 E5 Enterprise and EMS trial subscriptions sharing the same organization and the same Azure AD tenant with your list of user accounts.
All of your user accounts enabled to use Office 365 E5 Enterprise and EMS.
You are now ready to configure EMS policies, enroll devices, and experiment with scenarios that include both Office 365 and EMS.
